I have been using Outlook for the longest time and have tried FairEmail a couple of times and simply deleted it. Tried sticking through it for about a month and I'll be sticking with it for a good long time now :)

I quite like using K-9 Mail, it merged with Thunderbird and great things are coming for it, I think it's awesome

    I REALLY liked the Inbox app they made for gmail. Sadly, like all the best things google makes, it went the way of the dinosaurs.

    Please don't hate me, but I use the Gmail app on Android since it works well enough.

    On my desktop though I use Thunderbird, and have for about as long as I can remember.

    Thunderbird is the best. Been using it since many years and had no major issues.

    I use ProtonMail. Additionally, i have set up e-mail aliases with my domain - i get e-mail addresses like kbin@mydomain.com, or personal@mydomain.com. Its quite useful when i suddenly get sent a bunch of random spam e-mail.

    I can then just block that e-mail from receving e-mail, its quite handy.

    I like FairEmail on Android and don't see myself switching to something else anytime soon. For the desktop I use Thunderbird

    K9 Mail is my favorite one so far. I've tried FairEmail but the UI was confusing.

    Same here, It's the second thing I install on a new computer, the first being Firefox.

    Every morning when I turn on the computer, I start Firefox and Thunderbird, and then leave Thunderbird in the background, quietly doing its job.

    I use FairEmail, too. I didn't like GMail and K9.

    On Android I use FairEmail. I prefer it for it being FOSS.

    Edison. I use it on my Pixel, iPhone, and iPad. It has some more advanced features I don't use, it just has a simple, straightforward UI on iOS and Android and doesn't hassle me too much about upgrading to paid features.

    ProtonMail :) (Edit: Oh i see client! (no matter as long as it works with ProtonBridge, or just web UI)

    I use Thunderbird, but I absolutely despise the tabbed interface for everything. It used to be optional; then you could restore the old interface with an extension; now even that has been removed. I should just uninstall it at this point and find something different, especially given that my filters and rules are handled at the server level now.

    I use alpine on smaller email accounts.

    In the past, I liked Eudora the best.

    K-9 on Android, Thunderbird on desktop. I love both of them, but K-9 has some weird problem that background sync appear to be not working.

    Used Gmail for a long time, 2 weeks ago switched to Outlook and simply amazed. It's easy to use, doesn't show you any ads unlike Gmail. And keep tracking the mails is much more enjoyable compared to Gmail. I believe it can do more of that if rules can be applied to Google mail accounts.

    Spark for Android

    Thunderbird on the desktop, Aquamail on Android, RoundCube/SquirrelMail via the web in a pinch. Back in the day I also used Evolution on Linux (when T-bird was buggy and lacking some features). Despite having many email buckets in the cloud, I keep no mail in any of them. I've self-hosted since '99, so I've been able to do whatever.

    I did use Outlook back in sepia times (pre-'98) and used Pegasus and/or Pine before that. :p

    I started using Spark late last year. It's simplified my mail handling quite a bit. There's also a desktop client for Windows, Dunno about OSX and IOS.

    Outlook drains my phone battery so fast I cannot use it. Stick to FairEmail now.

    I used outlook for years. Then they threw ads in between emails... I instantly deleted outlook and haven't looked back. The last place I want to see ads is my fucking email 🙄

    • On my desktop: GNOME Evolution - but only because my university uses Outlook w/ Exchange (cringe) and the UI is slightly more tolerable than Thunderbird.
    • On my phone: I just use the baked-in Samsung Mail app.

    In terms of provider, I used to use Gmail for my personal, but got tired of Big G scraping my correspondence. I tried Proton, but its integration story is a complete joke (you can upload your calendar and contacts but there's no DAV support, their IMAP bridge is a non-standard-compliant dumpster fire that doesn't work with half the clients I tried...) so I ended up on Fastmail.
